The TLFs INSIDER TRADER!

[Bicycle Pump]

Some voices are saying that the Eastern industries are full of promise... I don't believe it.

Here are a few shares that I like to begin the new year and see a good return for the next few months...

LID... I think will rise to 28p by April. 20p now.
PORV... a pound by Easter. 55 - 60p now.
LRD... I bought into this at 114. I think it'll get back to 165 which is when I'll sell.
LGEN... speculation on a buy out will push this past the 100p mark. 77p now.

Here are some others I'm watching...

BDEV CAL LAV TIG PXS KGF

Might as well invest in alcohol and good times.,..Its gonna get pissed up against the wall anyhow. it seems to me if you are not in a position to manipulate the market, or are not a market insider then you are just so much fodder to be served to the big players at thier whim...
Real Estate long term. Oil.

The investing dilemna is that stock prices have recovered to an extent that there are no screaming bargains yet interest rates are so low that sticking your money in a bank isn't gonna get u much interest.

Some ideas:

1) Low beta dividend paying stocks  with dividends greater than bank interest.  Con Ed (ED) is one example.

2) Closed end funds selling at historically big discounts to net aset value that are operated by managers with a good track record.  RVT and RMT are examples.

3) Pay attention to  taxes.  Americans in the 15% or lower marginal tax bracket are in the 0% long term capital gains/qualified dividend bracket for 2010.  But if you buy in 2009 you must hold for a year and a day to make the a gain "long term"  So you'd have to buy by Dec 30, 2009 if you wanted to sell on Dec 31, 2010 to take the gain in 2010.

4) You might want to take some tax losses in 2009.  Capital losses first offset capital gains but then the next $3000 offset ordinary income and the remainder carrying over to next year.

5) There's nothing wrong with money in the bank but don't go too far out on the yield curve cause at some point interest rates will rise again.  An ING Online account pays 1.3% interest plus you get a $25 bonus for enrolling.  If you deposit $250 that would equate to an interest rate of 11.3% if you imagine the bonus as interest.  ING also has one year CDs earning 2% interest which is much better than you'll get at your local brick and mortar bank branch.   ING accounts are all FDIC insured.

If you're interested in an ING account (USA residents) I can send you a referral link and I'll get $10 in addition to the $25 that you get.  I've had accounts there for about 5 years now. PM me if interested.

Somehow I suspect I'll get better market advice from a ladyboy forum than the ladyboy advice I'd get from an investment forum.

You should come to OZ sir

some banks are offering 8% p.a. on 5 year term deposit.
I took 6.8% for a 1 year term

Thinking of putting another couple of $$ into the 8% offer.

I've just purchased ANZPA

yield is variable but set at 7.17% for the 1st quarter and always 3.1% above the current 90 day bank bill rate.
